WARNING: The problem is Hartz Advanced Care flea and tick products for cats.
Hartz Mountain Corp manufactures a product known as "Flea & Tick Drops Plus," an anti-flea remedy which is applied to the animal's back, like Frontline or Advantage. The difference is that Frontline and Advantage use a much newer chemical, which DOES NOT HURT the animal. Hartz uses phenothrin which --- according to my vet --- has been around for 50 years, is not nearly as effective, and can be toxic. Cats apparently are much more likely to be sensitive than dogs.
After using this product cats may show the following symptoms; go into convulsions, become dizzy, uncoordinated and having trouble walking and loose weight if used over a prolonged time...
This is far from isolated. 1000's of cat owners purchase this over the counter product without knowing the risks. Many others find out to late...
Personally I have two cats. I had to put one to sleep after using the Harts Flea & Tic dip. (I didn't know not to use the product at the time) He became so ill from the toxic poison in the product, which I applied to my cat for fleas as per the instructions on the label... little I knew 3 weeks later I would be cremating my best friend of 14 years..
What is shameful is the way Hartz covered up the problem, and rather than fixing it, or making the public aware that this toxic may be harmful to your cat... they were more interested in hiding it from the public.. registering domain names that could out them, or allow individuals to post the truth online.. e.g.hartzvictims.org, www.HartzKills.com or www.HartzSucks.com
PLEASE READ! IT IS MY STORY ABOUT THE HARTZ PRODUCT THAT KILLED MY CAT
In early April of 2009, I applied Sergeants Flea & Tick Powder to my 5 year old Tabby, Oliver. A couple days following, I noticed that he was having muscle spams. When I took him to the vet, I was asked if I had applied any topical powder to him and was then told that Permethrin– one of the active ingredients in Sergeant Flea and Tick Powder for Cats—is harmful to animals and was causing the “tremors.” Oliver was diagnosed with Permethrin poisoning.
In doing research about Permethrin Poisoning/Toxicity, I have come across hundreds of horrible, heartbreaking stories not only about the Sergeants product I used on my cat, but other Sergeants products that have caused skin burns, skin irritations, neurological problems, seizures, kidney problems & even death in cats AND dogs. Why Sergeants has products on the shelves that are harmful to the animals they are supposed to protect is beyond my scope of understanding, but I do know this: They need to be held accountable.
At the end of May, I took Oliver in to discuss treatment as the tremors have not ceased. My vet suggested that we may be looking at extensive neurological damage, and that he needs to stay on meds. Since he has been taking Diazepam (Valium®) for more than a month, a full blood work up on him was necessary to be sure the drugs weren’t harming his liver. As I waited for the results, I watched my once energetic, playful kitty tremor away feeling completely helpless and saddened that he may never be the same. All I want is for him to be well—and wished I could get back the day I dusted him with that poison. 15 minutes passed and my vet entered the room with a somber look on her face. Olivers blood work showed her was in the advanced stages of Kidney Failure.
We treated Oliver for two months until he let me know that he was tired and needed for us to let him go. Jeff Balion, a FOX9 investigative reporter, followed Olivers story. As of right now, it will air September 23 on the 9pm newscast. On August 10, 2009 we gave Oliver his wings. The FOX9 cameras were with him the remaining few hours of his life recording him doing what he loved– walking around the yard and watching the birds and butterflies. We were with him until he closed his eyes for the last time. Although it is difficult, we know he is at peace. Now he’s our Angel.
I have started a Facebook page in his name to serve as a petition. Adding Oliver as your friend (facebook.com/oliver.d.cat) means that you agree that the sale of over the counter products that hurt, permanently damage and kill our pets needs to be stopped. You will not receive any emails from me other than to remind you of the broadcast.
